I'm one cheap mofo so i was thinking about this... would duct taping pillows to the inside of your trunk help keep it from rattling?

not likely at all. You have to put something in between the parts/ pieces that are rattling so they are not knocking against each other when the subs kick....pillows would muffle sound, but not reduce rattling

haha good one dude

most vibration in hondas are from the thin sheet metal. its that or stuff is hitting each other.

isolate the rattle one by one. theres gonna be many. the rattles that are caused by something hitting each other, stick some foam in between them. or be ghetto like me and use an old sock. seriously

the rattle from the sheetmetal, you will need to add weight to them. that is what dynamat or raamatt, or the like, do.

i got rid of most my rattles at one point. none can be heard from the cabin, but once you stand in the back, its pretty noticable.

the last rattle i think is from my gas tank. cant do much about that one. h:
